Is there a reason Garmin watches are never mentioned on LTT when they are talking about smart watches?

I've been rocking Garmin for years and recently moved up to a Venu 3s. Yes they are more expensive but for me I want something that does the health stuff well can give me some phone notifications and otherwise just stays out of the way with strong multi day battery life. Almost every conversation I

Garmin or Amazfit?

I was an Apple Watch user for years and said enough I went to the garmin venu 3s , it took some getting used to the app compared to Apple, but $400 for smartwatch when I’m never gonna be a hardcore training athlete is craziness! Just got the active 2 premium and for way less I’ve got the best budget

I’m trying to decide between the garmin vivoactive 5 or 6 to start using pacing

Garmin has a compare feature and you can compare the two and select the box to show only differences and see if they matter to you. https://www.garmin.com/en-CA/compare/?compareProduct=1057989&compareProduct=1555457 The only differences that may make a difference for pacing are minor: 6 has sleep al

TREX Pro 3 48mm - Black Color vs Gold?

I bought the 44mm version and it was well worth it to me. My Garmin Venu 3s is sitting in a drawer, that one was not worth it. I have the black color, didn't like the gold.

First Amazfit - Active 2

Switching from my Mi Band 9 to the Amazfit Active 2 has been a huge upgrade in terms of accuracy and how the data is shown.

I’ve been eyeing the Garmin Venu 3S and Vivoactive 5 for a while now, but I just can’t justify the price knowing they’re still using older sensors.

Plus, for what the Amazfit

Priuštiviji garmin za planinarenje 41mm

Venu 3S? Ako nije neka hardcore sportašica, zadovoljit će joj sve potrebe. Nađe se za 300e tako da je puno pristupačniji nego 4.

Leaving fitbit?

I have Garmin Venu 3s and will switch to Fitbit Air. Got it because of long battery life but I don’t use all the features, and all the stats value just stay there unused. I love to see how Gemini will analyze the health data.

is upgrading from samsung w7 to garmin worth it?

For what it’s worth I am an extremely casual runner, hardly ran at all last year but training for a half this year. I switched from an Apple Watch SE to a Garmin Venu 3S two years ago because I was sick and tired of my Apple Watch pausing when it lost my heart rate on runs. I love my garmin, even du

Bike computers

I have the Garmin Edge 540. I also have the Garmin watch - I like being able to sync the two. This is my first bike computer and I didn’t need anything super fancy and I’ve been happy with it so far! I wish I had a touch screen but I manage just fine. It really is a game changer to see climbs and yo
